Leiomyoma is a benign tumor originating from smooth muscle cell, Mostly from uterus. However, in men is a very rare entity. Scrotal leiomyoma is a very rare tumor. Here we presented a case of scrotal leiomyoma in a 71-year-old man. He presented with a slowly growing, painless mass and heaviness in the left testis for 10 years. Due to huge size, testicular attachment and preoperational diagnosis of atypical leiomyoma/leiomyosarcoma, orchiectomy was performed. Pathology report diagnosed leiomyoma. We suggest frozen section diagnosis as a useful tool, to prevent unnecessary procedure.
